The craniofacial anomaly affects social environments, influences socialization, personal development and educational progress, interfering in life's quality. Rehabilitation involves hospitalization, so has early contact with nursing that must ensure humanizes care. It's necessary involvement of a specialized interdisciplinary team, spanning the biopsychosocial aspects of cleft. We aimed to understand the experience of the child/adolescent fissured to know their needs, working in the clarification and guidance. This is a qualitative research, whose method was content analysis. Subjects were individuals from 7-18. Nine interviews were conducted. Five categories emerged from the analysis: Perception of child/adolescent about the cleft palate/lip, Difficulties in social interactions, Experience in the treatment of cleft lip/palate, Understanding the reasons for the cleft and Support networks to overcome. The emotional congenital malformation's impact on the health of children/adolescent, family and society is complex. The apparent esthetic difference compromises their psychosocial adjustment. Surgical correction/psychological maturity help to improve the resiliency. The knowledge of the experience's cleft spotlight their difficulties, as well as deficiencies in Nursing action with them and their families, important aspects to be known/used to improve the care provided.
